It looks like the manual needs updating. There is actually a relatively easy workaround available, which is the perl-versioned locations available in MANPATH: $ printenv MANPATH /sw/share/man:/sw/lib/perl5/5.18.2/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/share/man:/opt/X11/share/man:/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/share/man:/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/share/man:/sw/lib/perl5-core/5.16.2/man:/sw/lib/perl5/5.16.2/man If you install the manpages under %p/lib/perl5/%type_raw[perl]/man they will be available automatically. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: https://sourceforge.net/p/fink/mailman/fink-devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
